Why can't Hubble see it?

Heard someplace that the Hubble's tracking is too slow. The Moon is too fast. The few Hubble pictures of the Moon were
just point where its going to be and start snapping, as it were.

So, to try to get even a specific 100m2 area...

Hubble has photographed the Moon, but it's not the best use of Hubble: Hubble shoots the Moon

Note that the crater pictured is 58 miles across. You're not going to be able to pick out a 14-foot-wide lunar module.

This is like beating a dead horse. We have talked about this a hundred timed of FR. Hubble has a couple of problems. First tracking speed and second the moon is so bright that it would burn out the CCD's if you pointed it at the moon. They cannot take that level of light. Now who in their right mind would want NASA to spend the money to send something up there to take a picture of a couple of old landing crafts? I mean they have so much money to spend don't you know.
